Recently fitted gamma led motion sensor ceiling lights outside my windowed front door in a shared hallway (4 flats) are being triggered from the flat inside. Are lights available that do not detect through glass (and also have emergency battery back-up)?
My parents and my oven both need new oven lamps but both mine and their glass lamp covers are completely stuck / cross threaded and won't come undone to get to the lamp.
Is there a dang secret to get these glass covers off ? I don't want to force it and end up breaking the glass

Afternoon all,
I am soon to be boarding out the loft on my new home as there's nothing of the sort up there currently. It is just to be for storage so I think I'm going to use 11mm OSB sheets for the actual boarding. When I went up there to measure up, I noticed the FG insulation has seen...

I'm in the process of quoting to illuminate a bit of listed stained glass and am looking at LED options. One concern is what effect the LED may have on the glass in the long term, will it affect the pigmentation at all?

Hi Folks
I've been asked to quote for installing a "Funry Smart Switch ST 2", which the customer bought from Amazon or Ebay (I forget which). Both he and I are a bit concerned about the product in terms of whether it is manufactured and tested to appropriate standards and is safe.
It is CE...
